The Key Stage 3 curriculum is designed to build on the learning experiences that children had in their primary schools. In addition to learning the specialised subject knowledge required to progress through secondary education, students have the chance to develop learning and thinking skills and subject specific skills. We ensure our Key Stage 3 curriculum allows time for creativity both in individual subjects and across the curriculum while providing a broad and balanced education.
KS3 Subjects include; Art, Biology, Chemistry, Chinese, Computing, Drama, English, Food, French, Geography, Graphics, History, Maths, Motor Vehicle, Music, PE and Sport, Photography, Physics, PSHE, RE, Science, Technology

At Key Stage 4, students will continue to follow a broad and balanced curriculum that is suited to their individual needs. We want every student to finish Year 11 with a complete set of Level 2 qualifications to take them on to their next stage whether this is employment, training or Post-16 study.
We’ve also put together a helpful Options Brochure for parents and students with details of the subject choices for 2023-25. You can read the brochure here.
